KATE MANSI

Kate Mansi was bitten by the acting bug at a young age; starring in print and television commercials. She was introduced to the world of ballet by her mother; an accomplished dancer and joined the Pacific Festival Ballet, where she was a principle dancer in performances of the Nutcracker, Bambi, Peter Pan, and the contemporary ballet Heaven and Hell. After college, Mansi decided to focus solely on her acting career. She appeared in several national commercials and print ads. In 2008, she landed a guest spot on the sitcom, How I Met Your Mother and was asked to screen test for the role of Melanie on Days of Our Lives, but lost out to Molly Burnett. Three years later, she auditioned for the part of Abigail Deveraux and landed the job. She visits Behind the Mic Radio on Thursday, April 4, at 7pm EST.
